It's always nice to see new players in the field, but...

Why, oh, why would you use page numbers on a device that has variable-sized pages? That's insane! It means that either the page number for some particular point in the text changes as you adjust the font, line height, margins, layout, ..., or you have page numbers that in no way correspond to the actual pages. Please come to your senses and use percentage-based navigation instead, because it actually works consistently and thus isn't confusing.

Oh, no, please, no. I really don't want my ebook to keep crashing/rebooting, like my WinCE-based satnav does (and as all other WinCE-devices I've ever tested do).

No, it won't. That is, unless you store it at 0°C (unlikely if you're using it in an e-ink device)
and at 40-60 % charge (also quite unlikely). A li-ion (incl. li-pol) battery is dead as a doornail in way less than 10 years. If you use the device in the sun a lot and keep it charged it might well be dead in a year.
